Boxwoods - The Mason InnFantastic Mother's Day BrunchWe made reservations at this restaurant because of the good reviews on Open Table. People were right!! In the first place, we did not know this Inn was even here on the GMU campus. The variety at the brunch was extensive. There were seafood items (shrimp, mahi mahi,) breakfast items (crepes, fruit, eggs, sausage, bacon) an omelet station, a Belgian waffle station, a salmon/roast beef station, endless mimosas, coffee, tea. And two tables of desserts ranging from mini cupcakes to cakes, pies, and strawberry shortcake, for instance. The wait staff was superb and attentive. The price, considering it was Mother's Day, was very fair. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a delicious Sunday brunch.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Brunch PlaceWent here for Mother's Day brunch. It is in a hotel / convention center so I was hoping that it wouldn't be bad. I was pleasantly surprisef. The food was great, it was clean and the service was good. I will definitely try it again.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMLunch at BoxwoodsLunch at Boxwoods is relaxed and to an extent understated and although located on the campus of George Mason University, off the beaten path. The menu is modest but complemented with a buffet which covers a wide range of items. But the lunch has excellent and with healthy choices for those who must watch their waist lines or return to work. Good wine list and prices are modest. And the service is great, never fawning over you and allows one to eat and converse at their own pace. I've never had a feeling of being rushed. In closing, a great luncheon venue that I look forward to returning time and time again.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMLunch with FriendsMy fellow teachers and I were given an opportunity to leave school for lunch during Teacher Appreciation week. We chose the Boxwoods. The service was great. The food was fabulous. Though we did not choose the lunch buffet, we did check it out. The theme was Greek. The food on the buffet smelled wonderful and was like looking at artwork. We totally enjoyed our lunch out. What a glorious treat that was.5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMThe server was very attentiveThe server was very attentive and worked with the needs of our group. The food was fast and enjoyed.4/28/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food but open-table glitchThe restaurant was great but Open-table really messed up (although it worked out fine). We wanted reservations at 6:00 and open table only offered reservations for 5:45 or 6:15. We took the earlier to give us time prior to an 8:00 concert. Boxwoods called us to alert us that they were only having a buffet because of a charity event. When we got to the restaurant it was empty and only three other tables eventually were taken by 7:30. When we told our server he mentioned that all their reservations that night were for 5:46, which seemed strange so it must have been an open-table glitch. That said, the food and service were great, the atmosphere was wonderful and we even had a a beautiful sunset. We will go back.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AM
